Oh, I hate this. I get your point but as a potential new hire of your company I'm also interviewing you. This means that if you state a problem in a very ambiguous way (like you did in your first message) that's already a red flag for me. Sure, I don't expect 100% accuracy in your problem statement, but I don't expect either lazynnes for the sake of "let's see if the interviewer asks good questions before implementing anything".
Expect professionalism from both parts.
- ip26 6y agoBoth sides have a point. Perhaps your parent runs a shop where ambiguous requirements are one of the biggest problems they face, whereas you prefer to work in roles where the requirements are already established and you focus on working within them.
- ALittleLight 6y agoThat's fine. I don't think every job is a fit for every person or vice versa. Your reaction is a positive one for my question - if you don't want to work where you have to clarify ambiguous requirements then you wouldn't want to work for the company I'm at, and it's best we figure that out as early as possible, like in the phone screen.
